I'm near Lindsay, ON. He still can get it. He has mostly switched over to cerwin-vega for some reason. But he said it would be just under a grand

As far as I know Axiom shifted to an internet-only model at least a year ago. They may be allowing a few local dealers to continue but I didn't think so. We can ask at the picnic...

I agree, I had heard they no longer are selling via dealers about a year ago. I suppose there is still some old stock floating around, but I would feel safer buying direct.

There was a local stereo shop in Ottawa that did sell them BUT here is the real deal, even though they sold them a little bit cheaper- there was no 30 day return policy. So that cancelled out any benefit from buying elsewhere. Axiom's service is the one of the best in the industry. There again reason enough to buy from them.

I originally bought from the place in Oakville, they were cheaper and at that time I had never bought over the net and was still skeptical of Axiom...I'm no longer skeptical as once I got my VP150 home.

I wish I would have bought directly from Axiom and will do that going forward. I'm not even sure if my 150 is A or B, not that it really matters. I've been getting certificates for awhile now and hope to make my purchase at the picnic. Nothing like a nice gift when coming back from a trip!

I wondered if the stores still selling Axiom get them cheaper by purchasing in bulk 5% and getting the factory outlet 10%?? The place in Oakville I went to 3-4 times and they were getting stuff everytime.

I pick up my Epic 80 system 2 weeks ago at the plant. They said they are completely internet based now. One of the main reasons was to have full control of warenty claims. I guess some dealers were screwing customers by charging them labour to replace drivers. Now Axiom just ships the driver/part to you and talks you through the repair over the phone. Better for all (except the dealers)!

Your next step being the M60s is a good one. They will probably be louder than your mits front stage is right now as they have pretty good sensitivity. Keep in mind that there won't be an abundance of bass though. This is true with all speakers at those wattage levels though.

I bought the M60s about a year ago and hooked them up to an Onkyo tx-sr501 (65x5). They sounded great. Much better than my bose 401s. Then I upgraded to a Pioneer Pioneer VSX1014TXK (120x7). Hooked it up 5.1 initially, sounded even better. Then I biamped the M60s with the extra 2 channels. Sounds phenomenal.

I think the point I'm trying to get to is that you'll be really impressed with the M60s right away, and they will continue to amaze you as you upgrade.
